Château Cantenac Brown 2022

Bordeaux - Margaux - 3e Cru Classé - Red Wine -

Château Cantenac Brown 2022 is an elegant and refined expression from the Margaux appellation, crafted by one of the Médoc’s historic estates. As a Third Growth, this 2022 vintage marries aromatic finesse, depth and saline freshness. It showcases the complexity of the gravelly terroir and the estate’s commitment to quality, delivering expressive aromatics and balanced structure.

Tasting Notes

Appearance: deep, brilliant purple.
Nose: delicate and complex with ripe black fruit (blackcurrant, black cherry, blackberry), floral notes (violet), fine spice, cedar and subtle mineral hints.
Palate: broad, structured and balanced with fine, silky tannins integrated into dense fruit. Saline freshness typical of Margaux brings tension and liveliness. The long finish is elegant and persistent, with fruit and spice nuances.

Terroir & Blend

Gravel soils of Margaux over clay-limestone subsoils, providing excellent drainage and optimal ripening conditions. Blend centered on Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented by Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, offering complexity, balance and aging potential.

Winemaking & Aging

Hand-harvested grapes with strict sorting. Parcel-by-parcel vinification with extended, controlled macerations to extract depth and finesse. Aged in French oak barrels with a carefully calibrated proportion of new oak to refine structure without overshadowing fruit purity.

Food Pairings

Pairs beautifully with grilled or roasted red meats, beef fillet, lamb, game birds or elaborated sauced dishes. Serve at 60–64 °F (16–18 °C). Decant for 2 hours when young to unlock full aromatic complexity.

12bouteilles.com Recommendation

Château Cantenac Brown 2022 is an elegant and age-worthy Margaux. Excellent with aeration today, it will evolve beautifully over 20–35 years, revealing deeper nuance and complexity.
